I got my mom an iPad, apparently AI is unavoidable in setup. To finish setup, you must agree to Apple AI.
They are all doing it together. I can't keep track of who owns what, perhaps "they" are all actually owned by the same megacorp.
Oh really? I have never had Apple Intelligence enabled on mine, it was always opt in I thought
It is. Original commenter is either dishonest or inept.
Please don't lie, this is exactly what happened using the automatic setup (repeatedly). Let's make a deal, if I bother to film it and post the video, you agree to immediately delete your account; if I am wrong, I agree to immediately delete my account. We will need mod enforcement, as I don't trust you for obvious reasons.
Ironically, your statement is itself dishonest or inept, so thanks for the snort.
Whoa, they are racing for pink slips. That's how you know it's GTA real.
You want me to buy and set up a new iPad to show you how to navigate instructions on a screen?
Thanks for the laugh.
Whatever would give you that idea? I don't want you to buy and set up a new iPad to show me how to navigate instructions on a screen, that was never said or even vaguely implied. It's not even a viable conversational option, well done.
Thanks for the hearty laughs at you laughing inappropriately due to your own lack of comprehension and nonsensical response. Seriously, how could you possibly think that I want you to do setup or buy an ipad in any way? The bet was... oh why bother, fine, you don't want a video that proves you are wrong.
Your claim is still dishonest and/or inept, recall that your setup experience is irrelevant and not universal, per Apple's very own admission. Plain to discover for anyone who investigates with even a cursory search, oh well, haha hahaha thank yoooooooooouuuu
Ok.

Thank you for your time
